1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, 90% Silver

The first year of issue for the Kennedy half — struck just months after the assassination and pulled from circulation almost immediately by a public that wanted to keep them. This one came through in fine shape. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint mark: Philadelphia (no mint mark — reverse confirms none present) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar, first year of issue - Silver content: 90% silver (pre-1965) - Designer initials: "FG" (Gilroy Roberts / Frank Gasparro) visible on reverse Lightly circulated with good luster remaining on both sides — details are sharp, no major hits or cleaning visible. A solid example of a coin people still actively seek out. The Kennedy half was rushed into production in early 1964 as a tribute coin, and the US Mint produced over 400 million that year — yet most were hoarded immediately, making circulated examples genuinely hard to find in this condition. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
